HIGHLIGHTS

The leader said India will be free from Sangh forces only when it is socialist.

Madhu Kishwar is a Modi-Bhakt: Tejaswi.

The leader also denies knowing Bachha Rai from Bihar Toppers scam.

In a barrage of stinging attacks on Modi government, Bihar deputy CM and
Lalu Prasad's younger son Tejaswi Yadav has said that the country will
be free from Sangh forces only when it turns socialist.

Yadav was speaking at the 20th Foundation Day celebration of Rashtriya Janta Dal (RJD) in Patna.

Jibe at 'Modi-bhakts'

He also attacked writer Madhu Kishwar, calling her a devotee of Narendra
Modi. He said, "Madhu Kishwar is a Modi Bhakht. She posted a picture on
Twitter of a folding road in Bihar two days back. I inquired about it
and found that the picture was from Bangladesh. This is a malicious
campaign to tarnish our image."

"The work we are doing is not
being propagated and soon RJD will launch its own magazine to publicise
the work of the party and government."

State-Centre friction

"Centre has always cheated us," Tejaswi added.

Accusing the government of committing fraud, he also said that the special
package for Bihar announced by PM during elections was a fraud.

Yadav denied knowing anything about the accused in Bihar Toppers scam. "Who
is Baccha Rai? We don't know. Who gets pictures clicked with Lalu is not verified at party functions. Today also so many people have come to the function. We have not conducted any verification," he said.

"Mallya, Adani looted and fled India"

In
another attack, Tejaswi blamed Vijay Mallya and Adani family member of
fleeing the country with money. "Vijay Mallya has run away after looting white money from the country. Adani's nephew has also done the same,"
he fumed.
